Question

n the process of performance appraisal, _____ occurs when assessors rate all workers as average. a. halo error b. central tendency error c. similar-to-me error d. leniency error

Answer 1

Answer:

b. central tendency error

Explanation:

Central tendency error is the error in which the rater propensity could place the most items on the middle side of the rating scale. In this the employer puts the employees based on the performance i.e it varies from 4 to 7, 8 to 10, 1 to 3, etc

Therefore in the given situation, when the rate of assessors determined the rate for all workers as an average so the central tendency occurs

Hence, the correct option is b.
